What are the main issues with the Macquarie River?
Answer== Dryland salinity is a major problem in the Macquarie catchment, with over 3850 ha of land affected. Dubbo also has problems with urban salinity due to excessive watering, stormwater runoff and agricultural activities in the surrounding areas. == Across different parts of the catchment there are increasing problems with contamination of the waterways from nutrients, pesticides, bacteria and metals.Some parts of the catchment have high phosphorus and nitrogen levels, thought to be caused by nutrient input from grazing animals.Chemicals used on cotton crops may flow into the waterways, causing concern. == Wind and water erosion is a serious problem. Large areas of the catchment suffer from stream bank, gully and sheet erosion.Wind erosion generally occurs during dry periods on cultivated lands or on grassland and shrubland that have been overgrazed and are bare of vegetation. == It is estimated that over 3000 km of waterways in this catchment suffer from cold water pollution from water released from Burrendong Dam. The addition of this colder water can make it too cold to allow native fish to breed and reduce the growth of plants and algae important for aquatic food chains.
